Obed Lake Provincial Park | Alberta

Obed Lake Provincial Park is an Alberta Parks provincial park in the Central region, 55 kilometres west of Edson off Highway 16. Alberta Parks lists one day-use area and one campground.

West Fraser Mills-Fox Creek Development Association is shown as facility operator.

Why Visit Obed Lake Provincial Park

Obed Lake protects three lakes with abundant wetlands and forested areas, making it a compact camping, fishing, paddling, and wildlife-viewing destination. Alberta Parks says nature enthusiasts may see wildlife and birds including trumpeter swans, bald eagles, and osprey.

Visitors can camp at a small campground suited for both RVs and tents. The main lake offers fishing, power boating, canoeing, and kayaking. Obed Lake contains yellow perch and brown trout, and the official activity note highlights brown trout and yellow perch fishing.

Activities include camping, canoeing and kayaking, fishing, ice fishing, power boating, and geocaching. Watercraft activities include aquatic invasive species reminders, so visitors should plan to clean, drain, and dry boats, canoes, kayaks, and related gear.

Power vessels are subject to a 12 kilometre-per-hour speed limit. Because the park is wetland-rich and relatively small, visitors should check campground status, boating rules, ice safety, fishing regulations, and current maps before travel.

Things To Do

Plan around RV or tent camping, day use, paddling, power boating at low speed, brown trout and yellow perch fishing, ice fishing, geocaching, wetland birding, and wildlife viewing.

Planning Notes

Confirm campground status, operator updates, 12 kilometre-per-hour speed limit, AIS precautions, fishing rules, ice safety, maps, advisories, and Alberta Parks updates.
